She sees something in the Bowles and her new friends that she had never experienced before…but should she trust what the preacher is teaching when it goes against everything she had accepted as truth?

My Review:

I had read some fiction (and possibly some non-fiction) about the Orphan Trains before, but I think this may be one of my favorite books covering that subject in history.  With a clear Gospel message and an engaging storyline, this was a wonderful book!

            I enjoyed getting to know people in Cutter along with Marie, as well as learning Marie’s own backstory.  There was one family in particular that was especially kind to Marie, even when she wasn’t welcoming the attention.  This is a good side-lesson to the story!

            I enjoyed reading this clean book with a good message, and I would recommend it to ages eight and older!
